I swear I'm not hallucinating. I managed to get Windows 1.0 Alpha working on MS-DOS 6.22 in Virtualbox with programs and everything (except COMMAND.COM, but A…

When I'm trying to install Visi On, I get a error saying "Non-DOS disk error reading drive A" everytime I run or type a random word the error appears. I am using 86box by the way, to avoid confusing with real hardware. Any solutions?

No. Mainly because it requires a Mouse Systems compatible mouse, that few programs emulate. It works well in PCE.
PCem supports the Mouse Systems mouse, but it chokes on copy protection / …

What's wrong with the files? I've downloaded the IBM PC floppies. After that, I inserted the floppy on 86box on the drive B: (Since PC DOS 1.x should run on A: drive). Then I ran DRAW.EXE but it just repeated some weird mess of text, I've tried runn…

Something I wonder is: What does WIN-OS2 mean, and what was it's purpose? Was it to replace Windows 3.1 or just a demo?
WIN-OS/2 is the Win16 subsystem in OS/2 (basically a modified copy of Wi…

I tried but it didn't work. I tried every bus/controller and tried to make the hard drive recognizable but still doesn't work. I don't know if I need to change the channel/ID or something?
Everytime I run FDISK.COM it just tells me th…

@SomeGuy
Well, I am trying to emulate Visi On on 86box and I want to format the hard drive on MS-DOS 2.11 with an XT Machine because it's one of the machines that can run Visi On.
The problem is, that when I try to format the C: drive I can't …
